Default RE: Spinner bolts break

Hi all, thanks for the comments so far.

As for tightning the bolts. I just hand tightnen them using the small end of the hex wrench as leverage. I doubt they are too tight, but I will pay attention to that.

The spinner bolts are those that came with the spinner. I don't remember seeing any specs on them. I will make sure the new bolts are mild steel. Seems like I saw some specs on Tru-Turns site. I may order some of theirs.

The threads on the adapter nut appear to be OK. A bolt screws into it without any sign of a problem anyway. I replaced the adapter nut involved in the break last fall.

thanks again,

Brian
